Related: About this forumDo you have a favorite BBQ sauce recipe, perhaps something with brown sugar and honey?
I'm going to smoke some items tomorrow, spare ribs, a Boston butt, Italian sausage and some brisket. I have the ribs and brisket covered in a dry rub, chicken drums and thighs in brine, and the butt soaking in apple juice with some salt, brown sugar and cinnamon.

to make it smokey you can add liquid smoke or chipotles.

(56,068 posts)base of ketchup (already has sugar, tomato vinegar - or you can do those individually) then more brown sugar and/or molasses, vinegar, bit of mustard, onion, garlic, soy, hot pepper, smoke flavor from liquid smoke, smoked paprika, or chipotles. sometimes instead of or in addition to the sugar we throw in a leftover jar of jam or fruit preserves nobody wants to finish.
can get quite hot and spicy, tangy and vinegary, or sweet and rich depending on proportions of stuff.
when I was young there was a group of old Arizona Pioneer families that met once year for a steak fry and there was a mustard based sauce that was so good, I wish I could find that recipe again. I know it was published in the paper once in the early 70s. I might have found it more recently, but didn't have subscription access to look at the old images.
